The old lady was so anxious that her walking stick made a loud noise: "Then what are you still standing there for? Go quickly."
"Grandma, I'm back!"
Just as the Shi Zhentang brothers turned around, a clear voice rang out.
Tian Yuzhu had just turned the corner from the bamboo forest when she heard her scolding the two brothers of the Shi family. She couldn't help but laugh: "Grandma, don't worry, I'm fine!"
"You...you..." The old lady saw the girl walking towards her with a smile, and she felt anxious, annoyed, pitiful, and loving. She reached out and poked her forehead: "Don't go up the mountain alone again. If you go up again, I will scold you."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Tian Yuzhu wiped the sweat from her forehead.
This smear was terrible. The originally fair skin was covered with a layer of firewood ash, and now it was all rubbed together, and large black spots suddenly appeared on both sides of the cheeks.
"Second sister-in-law, your face." Shi Weiqiang pointed at himself and said, "There's mud on it."
"This is not mud, it's firewood ash." Su Zhen quickly used her sleeves to help her wipe it.
Tian Yuzhu smiled and dodged: "I will wipe it myself, I will wipe it myself..."
"Sister-in-law, you guys go to the commune first. I'll go back with Yuzhu to wash her face." Shi Zhentang spoke. His wife returned safely, and he felt relieved.
But deep down, I still felt a lingering fear, and it took me a few seconds to recover.
Su Zhen agreed: "Well, then the grandmas and I will go first."
So Su Zhen and Shi Weiqiang accompanied the old lady to the commune. On the way, the old lady was still puzzled: "A Zhen, tell me, where did that girl go?"
"She said she went to the mountain temple to worship..."
Su Zhen felt her lips throb as she finished speaking. As she expected, the old lady was surprised: "Where is the mountain temple in our village now?"
Shi Weiqiang had long known that his second sister-in-law was secretive in her actions. He thought she might be going to meet the wolves, so he quickly helped to cover up for her: "It's hard to say if there are any in the deep mountains, but we just don't know!"
Su Zhen quickly said, "That's right, grandma. Look at Yuzhu, her face is covered in ashes from burning paper. She must have gone to pray."
"Really?" The old lady looked confused. "His face was covered in ashes. How much paper did he have to burn?"
“…”
The three of them walked away while chatting.
Tian Yuzhu, who had just returned home, excitedly told Shi Zhentang what had happened in the mountains.
"It turns out that grandma's dream was also like a prophecy. I didn't expect Lao Hei to actually keep his promise. Although he is a wolf, I believe his promises are much more real and reliable than those of humans."
Shi Zhentang was surprised after hearing this: "You said it was a wolf, but how could it be so human-like?"
As he spoke, he twisted the towel and handed it to his wife, wiping the little cat's face while pretending to be thinking.
After thinking about it, he found it unbelievable.
Tian Yuzhu protested and snatched the towel away: "This is my face, not the table, what are you wiping it on?"
Shi Zhentang immediately clicked his tongue and said, "I'll wipe it gently."
After saying that, he took the towel and wiped it very carefully this time. He wiped the forehead and kissed it, wiped the cheek and kissed it again...
This made Tian Yuzhu chuckle, and she said as she laughed, "I seriously suspect that when Lao Hei was young, maybe like Xiao Hei, he also lived with humans for a while, so he behaved like this."
Wolves are wild animals after all. If this is not possible, then it seems incomprehensible that they can understand human speech without any instruction.
"Oh, that's possible." Shi Zhentang kissed her on the lips. "But I grew up in Quanshui Village, and I've only ever heard stories about wolves being enemies. I've never heard of anyone getting along with wolves. Maybe that person isn't from Quanshui Village, but from another village."
"It's possible, but it's just my guess. I can't rule out the possibility that Lao Hei is gifted."
"That's hard to say."
After washing the cat's face, Tian Yuzhu took out two lively rabbits from the bamboo basket and said, "Old Hei gave them as a gift, one male and one female. I asked my sister-in-law to raise them as breeding rabbits. Now no one will say anything nonsense anymore."
The fields have been distributed to each household, and it is becoming more and more normal to raise some edible poultry at home. You can be bolder in this regard!
Shi Zhentang found a bamboo basket to cover the two rabbits and said, "Let's go to the commune to collect the land first."
…
It was not until eleven o'clock, when almost half of the lottery tickets had been drawn, that it was the turn of the new courtyard of the Shi family.
Needless to say, the old lady and Su Zhen both unanimously decided to let Tian Yuzhu take action.
Chengcheng and Doudou were cheerleaders: "Come on, Second Aunt! Come on, Second Aunt!"
Tian Yuzhu walked onto the stage with a smile on her face, without any psychological pressure at all.
Grandma said that no matter what land she drew, it would be good land. She also knew that no matter which piece of land, as long as it was cultivated scientifically, there would be no soil that was not fertile.
As a result, she won the most complete, flat and fertile piece of land in the village with just one move.
Moreover, the number of acres is consistent with the population of Lao Shi's family, not to mention the vegetable plots, the ones that were drawn are all very close to the pond.
What kind of magical hand is this? The whole village cheered.
Some people are happy for the Shi family, some are jealous, and some are envious...
Chengcheng and Doudou clapped their hands: "Second Aunt is amazing, Second Aunt is amazing."
The old lady and Su Zhen couldn't stop laughing.
Shi Weimin's eyes lit up with joy. Just wait, if he didn't grow the best crops in the village after getting such good land, he would be a nobody.
Shi Weiqiang was very envious: "Second sister-in-law, please smoke with us old courtyard too!"
Just then Kong Xingbai and Wei Xinyi walked into the commune compound.
Seeing the enthusiastic response from the crowd, I couldn't help but ask a villager: "What happened?"
The third aunt immediately came forward and said, "Yuzhu is holding the best land in our village. Oh my God, the Shi family is so lucky. They can do anything they want. Oh my God, I've been coveting that piece of land all my life!"
Is this true?
Kong Xingbai and Wei Xinyi looked at Tian Yuzhu on the stage with complicated expressions.
They all remembered the scene they saw in the mountains at the same time.
"Brother, Tian Yuzhu is really lucky. Could it be true as the old saying goes, 'Fools have good luck?'" Wei Xinyi asked in a low voice. A woman can even deal with wolves. This blessing is unmatched by many people in the world.
Kong Xingbai nodded, his eyes moving. "It's hard to say, but no matter who it is, being blessed is a good thing."
Wei Xinyi thought, does it really matter who it is?
Immediately afterwards, the two of them stopped joining in the fun in the yard and went straight back to the educated youth accommodation area.
Fortunately, the fire that night did not burn down the dormitory, otherwise they would all have been separated and arranged to live with their fellow villagers.
The old Shi family held a small emergency meeting on whether to help draw the land for the old house. The old lady warned Shi De: "If you want Yuzhu to draw the land for your family, you must accept whatever you draw and never regret it in the future. Otherwise, you will draw it yourself."
Shi De nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, Mom, whatever I draw is what I get. I can't draw anything good anyway."
